Badminton at CWG: Focus on Sindhu but doubles key to India retaining mixed team gold
Ever since Dinesh Khanna claimed India's first badminton medal -- a bronze at the quadrennial event in 1966 -- the country has accumulated 25 medals, including seven golds, riding on individual brilliance. In the last edition at Gold Coast, Indian players were on fire, claiming an unprecedented six medals, including two gold. In the individual event, the coveted yellow metal will again be a target not only for double Olympic medallist Sindhu but also for world championships silver and bronze medallists Kidambi Srikanth and Lakshya Sen respectively.
